I am not a natural at Pilates or in classes generally. But from the moment I first attended one of Patrick’s classes after suffering a ricked back, I was totally converted. Patrick is a generous, clear and sympathetic teacher. And often very funny with it, though he never loses sight of the need to work to improve. I could not recommend him more highly.

Patrick is full of fun. His passion for pilates makes it quick and easy to get strength and length, flexibility and stability, agility and mobility. He’s energetic and entertaining with sensitivity and tranquillity. I call his classes: Patrick’s Pilates Parties! They’re always a pleasure.

I was more yoga biased before meeting Patrick. Now I love Pilates and have never felt stronger and more challenged in a non-extreme way than with Patrick. He has a way of giving the right cues to the right movements making you feel exactly what is meant to be felt. Patrick is a passionate Pilates instructor whose knowledge of human movement result in an unique and fun Pilates session. I often hear comments from his participants such as “I’ve been doing bridges for a long time but they have never felt like that before”. Patrick really connects with you as his Pilates student, you leave his session feeling taller, lighter and stronger.

Patrick Alegre has been teaching me Pilates for nearly 5 years. I started in his remedial class having suffered a recurring bulging disc for over a year. Following the principals of Joseph Pilates, Patrick encourages and inspires you to improve.
He is very clear and encouraging in his instruction and shows a great depth of knowledge and detail surrounding his subject. His emphasis was always on ‘safe' Pilates and, consequently, I greatly enjoyed his classes progressing to intermediate level and attending 3 times a week. Not bad for an initially reluctant participant!
